Bonjour, 

 

C'est mon 1er message sur le forum. Je viens un peu à la pêche aux informations pour trouver la bonne voie concernant mon achat.

Je recherche la légèreté  qui est mon critère Number One, puis j'aimerais savoir si les objectifs Fujinon ont le marquage de l'hyperfocale ?

Je cherche un appareil photo à avoir en permanence avec moi sans penser à la lourdeur du sac à dos. Je suis passé des reflex à l'hybride au début c'était tout rose puis avec l'achat d'un petit zoom mon dos a vite déchanté, depuis deux jours  je ne prend plus mon sac à dos, pourtant un modèle pas trop lourd 800g pour le sac, je revis. Je pense qu'en temps que photographe Fuji vous voyez ce que je veux dire. J'hésite entre plusieurs apn les Fuji X-T 5 / 50 / X-S20. 

Les photos que je désire faire sont street, paysages et tout ce qui se présente à moi, préférence au mode manuel pour 99 % de mes photos,  pas pour la map.

Si lors de la pdv il y a un peu  de pluie ou de crachin je veux pouvoir continuer à faire mes photos sans être obliger de tout ranger.

Ensuite vient un autre thème de photographie qui est la photographie animalière sauvage, la question est de savoir si l'un de ces trois apn est capable de faire ce type de photo et d'être en compétition égal ou supérieur avec le Nikon D500. Je sais que la série X-H2 en est capable, malheureusement elle est au dessus de mes moyens.

Coté objectif, j'ai pensé au 16-80 comme couteau Suisse, avec un 18mm et y a t'il des bagues adaptatrices pour venir d'une autre marque qui fonctionnent à 100% pour les données d'exposition et la map ou pas ?

 

Je vous remercie d'avance pour vos retours.

 

Cordialement.

Hello,

This is my first message on the forum. I come a little to fish for information to find the right way to buy.

I'm looking for the lightness that's my Number One criterion, and then I'd like to know if Fujinon lenses have hyperfocal tagging?

I'm looking for a camera to have with me all the time without thinking about the heaviness of the backpack. I went from reflex to hybrid at first it was all pink and then with the purchase of a little zoom my back quickly unduffering, for two days I haven't taken my backpack, yet a model not too heavy 800 g for the bag, I'm looking again. I think in time as Fuji photographs you see what I mean. I hesitate between several apn the Fuji X-T 5 / 50 / X-S20.

The photos I want to take are street, landscapes and everything that comes up to me, preference to manual mode for 99% of my photos, not for the map.

If in the pdv there is a little rain or spit I want to be able to continue making my pictures without having to put everything away.

Then comes another photography theme that is wild animal photography, the question is whether one of these three apn is capable of doing this type of photo and of competing equal or greater with the Nikon D500. I know that the X-H2 series is capable of doing so, unfortunately it is beyond my means.

On the objective side, I thought of 16-80 as a Swiss knife, with an 18mm and are there adaptor rings to come from another brand that work 100% for exposure data and map or not?

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Cordially.

None of the XF lenses I own have depth of field scales (so no hyperfocal marking).

The X-T5 is weather-sealed and big enough (mine has the accessory MHG-XT% grip fitted) to use the longer telephoto zooms. I have the XF 70-300 and XF 150-600. I would say it is useful for wildlife photography (I mainly do birds), and roughly equivalent to the Nikon D500 in most situations. AF will be different and possibly inferior in some situations.

The X-T5 will work well for street/landscape/everything that comes up. Fitted with the compact primes it's light enough and compact enough. XF 16/2.8, 18/2, 23/2, 27/2.8, 35/1.4 or 35/2, 50/2 are all compact and light and match well with the X-T5. XF 16/2.8, 23/2, 35/2 are all weather sealed too (as is the later version of the 27/2.8).

I'm unsure about mount adapters and which adapted lenses give AF, EXIF, etc. I have a mechanical only Nikon F to Fuji X adapter, but it's only for an older AF 200/4 micro nikkor so I don't need AF/EXIF, etc.

Concernant la publication en anglais ok je le ferai avec Google traduction, néanmoins tout ce qui est publié sur votre forum est en français. J'aimerais comprendre 😂

I would like to know what photos with 50000 ISO give, with the Z6 it is more or less correct then pass to post processing and it disappears, I have no idea what this can give with Fuji

Years ago I carried my Canon film cameras hyperfocused, but now with Fuji X equipment the autofocus works so well hyperfocusing is a thing of the past. I have a Fuji XF 14 mm f/2.8, one of the older lenses in the line, and it has depth of field and focus distance marks (and an unusual clutch to put the lens into manual versus automatic focusing mode). But I've never even tried hyperfocusing it. None of my other lenses have the markings for this.

Could this be a non-issue?

You maybe seeing this in French if your browser is set to automatically translate other languages, or you are viewing the site from a place where English is not considered a default language. Normally, many of us would see the postings in English, we see your first couple of postings in French, but @pw-pix nicely translated the first one for us.

The so called smart adapters are pretty good about giving you very fast auto focus and putting the EXIF information into the file. Some people use other manufacturers’ lenses via the adapter to get great wildlife images, including birds in flight. One such adapter company is Fringer:  https://www.fringeradapter.com

There are other companies that are well regarded for their adapters, your browser’s search engine should be able to find them.

@pw-pix is giving you good advice about the X-T5. It should easily handle all of the situations your message described.

As a concept, the idea of what it is and how it can help “you” get the images “you” want is still there, and is probably still there in the back of their minds for folks who used it, but now-a-days with focus stacking, it is a concept put in the same place as the ‘sunny-16 rule’.

If weight and size are the main issues, I would say the new XE-5 is the camera for you. I don't entirely agree with the idea that such a camera is too small for long lenses. The assembly is supported with the left hand (assuming you are right handed) under the lens at the point of balance.

    • I use a TECHART ring to mount Canon EF lenses on the GFX 50S-II and 100S-II, maintaining image stabilization and autofocus. The only limitation are lenses with a small rear element diameter that make it impossible to cover medium format. Fast lenses like the EF 85/1.2L or the 100-400L, however, work great.
    • I also use a Nikon to GFX Fringer and it works very well.  24mm f/1.8 vignettes so best used on 35mm mode.  50mm f/1.8 covers the entire frame very well with no issues and is a superb little lens. 105mm Sigma vignettes slightly but is perfectly usable. 300 f/4 likewise the 105.  I have a 70-200 f/20+.8 incoming to test so will report back but I'm expecting a little vignetting.  Even in 35mm mode the image is still 60MP and if you're prepared to manually crop and correct you can get 80-90 MP images.  I also have a C/Y to GFX adapter.  The 24mm Sigma Superwide vignettes strongly. Ditto 28-80 Zeiss Sonnar. 80-200 f/4 Sonnar is perfectly usable. All work fine as 35mm mode lenses.  I also have an M42 adapter which I tried with the Carl Zeiss Jena 135mm f/3.5 with good results. 
    • Ahh, the infamous brick wall photos… 😀 According to internet lore, if the dng converter does not properly apply the corrections, you can have it apply custom profiles that should work for you. How to do that is waaaaaay outside of this comment’s scope, but there are plenty of sites listed in the search engines that step you through the processes. Best wishes.
